The Man Who Knew Too Much (1956) more movies like this

directed by Alfred Hitchcock
featuring James Stewart, Doris Day, Brenda de Banzie, Bernard Miles, Daniel Gélin, Ralph Truman

The debate still rages as to whether Alfred Hitchcock's 1956 remake of The Man Who Knew Too Much is superior to his own original 1934 version. This two-hour remake (45 minutes longer than the first film) features more stars, a lusher budget, and the plaintive music of Bernard Herrmann (who appears on-camera, typecast as a symphony conductor). ...

Murmur of the Heart (1971) more movies like this

directed by Louis Malle
featuring Lea Massari, Daniel Gélin, Michel Lonsdale, Benoit Ferreux, Marc Wincourt

Told with fondness and precision, and set in France at the time of the IndoChina War (which later became an American problem known as the Vietnam War), this controversial feature handles teen coming-of-age, sexuality and even incest with a gentleness that disappointed the prurient and shocked the conservative. This is one of director Louis Malle's ...

Napoléon (1955) more movies like this

directed by Sacha Guitry
featuring Raymond Pellegrin, Daniel Gélin, Sacha Guitry, Jean-Pierre Aumont, Michèle Morgan

Showing no signs of slowing down in his 70th year, Sacha Guitry served as director and writer of the lavish historical epic Napoleon, and also costarred as Talleyrand. It is now hard to assess the quality of the film, since most American prints are severely edited, and the color photography appallingly washed out. Reviewers in 1955 admired the ...

Plucking the Daisy (1956) more movies like this

directed by Marc Allégret
featuring Daniel Gélin, Brigitte Bardot, Dr. Robert Hirsch, Darry Cowl

Because of star Brigitte Bardot's single fleeting disrobing scene in the French farce Please, Mr. Balzac!, the film was retitled Mademoiselle Striptease by one enterprising American distributor. Essentially, this is a harmless little escapade in which Bardot, escaping the strictures of her puritanical father, jumps off a train bound for a proper ...

La Ronde (1950) more movies like this

directed by Max Ophüls
featuring Anton Walbrook, Simone Signoret, Serge Reggiani, Simone Simon, Daniel Gélin, Danielle Darrieux, Fernand Gravey, Odette Joyeux, Jean-Louis Barrault, Isa Miranda, Gérard Philipe

An exercise in style, La Ronde was one of the few films of the 1950s to contain overtly sexual themes. The story is a series of character vignettes, set in Vienna in the early 1900s and held together by a narrator (Anton Walbrook). As the title implies, both the story and the film's visual motifs are circular. Director Max Ophuls uses an old ...

Le Plaisir (1952) more movies like this

directed by Max Ophüls
featuring Claude Dauphin, Jean Galland, Gaby Morlay, Madeleine Renaud, Daniel Gélin, Danielle Darrieux, Simone Simon, Jean Gabin

The works of Guy de Maupassant have likely been adapted by more French filmmakers than those of any other author (with the possible exception of Georges Simenon). Max Ophuls harnesses three Maupassant short stories to suit his artistic purposes in Le Plaisir (House of Pleasure). In "The Mask," an aging lothario (Jean Galland) learns more about ...
